Lots of SATAs on NCLEX = good or bad??

Published

do you think thats a good sign or a bad sign. i heard that those were higher level questions. then again, i had to do 265 questions and only had 18. you hear crazy things like people who only had 75 questions and half of em were SATAs. this wait is taking forever...wish me luck and pray for me. I hope all of us pass and never have to look at NCLEX ever again. Thanks everyone!

SATA is just another format of questions. People can get many or not so many and still pass. It doesn't make any difference

No it's not because like Silver stated, it's just a format. We think to ourselves that SATAs are higher level questions because we find them to be hard. However, they are just a format style so be calm and pray for the best!

yeah i think it's better to think of it that way..i've read almost all posts about SATA..and im kinda relieved now because you guys are just right that they are just type of questions and doesn't mean it's a difficult question..thanks! PRAYERS are still the best

SATA is an acronym for Select All That Apply. It is just a style of question and has no bearing on whether it is a higher level question or not.
